Independent Reading Check In!!!

We have not blogged about what we are reading for fun in a long time, and we all know that books
can really add a lot of joy to your life! I always like to have a good
fiction book around...like a good friend. Lately, I have been reading a
book called At the Water's Edge.
This book is historical fiction, and it is for enjoyment. Historical
fiction is based on historical events and people that are true but the
story is fiction.Books can be entertaining and POWERFUL!
